Generator Installation in Georgia

Storm season in Georgia takes lines down every year, and rural feeders around Georgia can stay out longer than anyone likes. A properly installed standby generator senses the outage, starts itself, transfers the load and hands power back when the utility returns, usually within half a minute. No cords, no fuel runs in the dark.

Questions

Generator Installation FAQs

What size generator does my Georgia home need?

It depends on what must keep running. A unit covering essentials such as the refrigerator, well pump, furnace blower, internet and a few lighting circuits is far smaller than one carrying central air and an electric range. We total your real demand on site and recommend the smallest unit that comfortably does the job. Call (866) 651-5242.

How long does a standby generator installation take?

Most residential installs in Georgia take one to two days on site once the unit and permit are in hand. Gas line work, pad curing and the inspection can spread that across a week or two of calendar time.

Is a standby generator worth it compared to a portable?

If outages are frequent, if anyone in the house depends on powered medical equipment, if you have a well or a sump pump, or if you are away from home often, automatic standby earns its cost quickly. If outages are rare and short, an inlet and interlock for a portable unit gives most of the benefit for a fraction of the price.

Can you install a transfer switch for a generator I already own?

Yes, and it is one of our most common generator jobs in Georgia. We install the inlet, the interlock or transfer switch and the labeling so you can power circuits safely without backfeeding the utility line.

Do generators need maintenance?

Yes. They exercise themselves weekly but still need oil, filters, battery checks and a load test annually. A generator that has not been serviced in five years usually does not start when you finally need it.

Will a generator run my whole house?

It can, with the right size unit and gas supply. Many customers in Georgia choose a mid-size unit with load management instead, which sheds the air conditioner briefly when the well pump kicks on. It costs less and the difference is barely noticeable.

Smoke detectors were chirping at random. They found two on an old interconnect that had failed and replaced the whole set with a matched system.

Smart switches through the whole first floor and they set up the app before they left instead of leaving me with a box of parts.

Burning smell behind the laundry wall at 6am. They treated it like the emergency it was, killed the circuit, and found a melted splice in an old junction box.
